Abstract
Quality of service for mesh networks is described. In embodiment(s), communication data can be prioritized as priority data and/or non-priority data for communication from a source node to a destination node in a mesh network. A first communication route in the mesh network can be determined to communicate the priority data from the source node to the destination node based on a minimum number of intermediate nodes via which the priority data is communicated. Additionally, a second communication route in the mesh network can be determined to communicate the non-priority data from the source node to the destination node based on a highest bit rate to communicate the non-priority data. A time duration to communicate the priority via the first communication route is less than a time duration to communicate the non-priority data via the second communication route.
